On January 1, 1987, a beautiful new church was opened on property at 416 Cathcart Street, directly across the street from West Park Manor Personal Care Home. There were forty charter members. The church has a seating capacity of 300 and is beautifully appointed. Pastor John Gilbert was the first minister, followed by Rick Harwood, Frank McMiller and the present pastor, John Wesley. Unfortunately, this church was subject to a perennial problem afflicting Winnipeg-the transfer of members to other provinces or countries. The small congregation found it increasingly difficult to carry the program and on July 16, 1994, the Southeast members joined them in fellowship. The church was re-named West Park Seventh-day Adventist Church with 175 members.
